BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Montreal captain Max Pacioretty liked what he saw from the new-look Canadiens in getting off to a successful start to the season.And Brendan Gallagher looks like hes ready to bounce back from an injury-shortened season.Gallagher scored twice while newcomers Shea Weber, Andrew Shaw and backup goalie Al Montoya made significant contributions in a 4-1 season-opening victory over the injury-depleted Buffalo Sabres on Thursday night.You want them to feel comfortable and whether you admit it or not, when you get that first goal or point or win, it takes a little bit of stress off you, Pacioretty said. And Im glad it came early for those guys. They played great.Weber, acquired in a trade that sent P.K. Subban to Nashville, provided grit to Montreals defense and added an assist, when his hard rising shot from inside the blue line was tipped in by Gallagher to put the Canadiens ahead 3-1. Shaw, acquired in a trade with Chicago, scored and Montoya stopped 30 shots in filling in for Carey Price, who is sidelined with the flu.A bit of nerves coming in, Montoya said. I wasnt trying to steal the game. Ive got a good team in front of me. They were fun to watch.Montoya will get a second consecutive start at Ottawa on Saturday after the Canadiens announced Price will not travel.There was no fun for the Sabres, whose injurie woes grew when forward Evander Kane was taken to the hospital for further evaluation after he slammed heavily into the end boards late in the second period.Coach Dan Bylsma had no immediate update on Kanes status, except to say the player was being evaluated for a lot of things internally.Kanes injury is the latest setback for a team that was already reeling a day after second-year star center Jack Eichel sprained his left ankle during practice.Well, theres a little bit of shake your head and snake-bitten a little bit, Bylsma said. You expect to have (injuries) throughout your lineup, and unfortunately you have a rash of them. But thats no excuse for how we need to play. Weve got to keep fighting through it.Kane was doubled-over in pain as he was escorted off the ice. He was hurt while racing Canadiens defenseman Alexei Emelin for a loose puck up the left wing in the Montreal zone. Kane reached out for the puck when the two bumped. Kane lost his balance, fell and slid with his left elbow slamming into the boards.The Sabres were also playing minus top-line forward Kyle Okposo (knee) and defenseman Dmitry Kulikov (bruised backside).Matt Moulson scored a power-play goal for Buffalo to briefly cut Montreals lead to 2-1 in the opening minute of the third period.The Canadiens responded with two goals in just under five minutes.Gallagher tipped in Webers shot 6:43 into the third. Shaw then scored by capping a frantic scramble in front after goalie Robin Lehner had already made two stops. Torrey Mitchell also scored for Montreal.We did a lot of good things, Canadiens coach Michel Therrien said. Theres still things that we need to work on and its normal. But its really early in the season. But overall youve got to be satisfied with the win.Game notes Before the game, the Sabres announced they signed general manager Tim Murray to a multiyear contract extension. Murray was hired in January 2014, and was entering the final year of his contract. ... At 18 years and 110 days, Canadiens rookie first-round draft pick Mikhail Sergachev became the fourth-youngest player and youngest defenseman to play a regular-season game in team history. ... Buffalo Bills coach Rex Ryan listed Eichel on his injury report, and then joked he had no comment about Maple Leafs rookie Auston Matthews scoring four goals in his debut. Nah, Ryan added, it was pretty amazing wasnt it? ... Eichel had his left leg perched on a scooter in making a brief appearance in the Sabres tunnel during pre-game introductions.UP NEXT:Canadiens: At Ottawa on Saturday.Sabres: Play at Edmonton on Sunday in opening four-game road swing.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Right tackle Anthony Davis sat down with 49ers general manager Trent Baalke for a productive discussion about his return to the team after a year-long retirement, and both men insist they have moved past any issues between them.Davis was reinstated by the NFL on Saturday and took part in his first practice Sunday after missing all of the offseason program under new coach Chip Kelly.On April 1, he posted on Twitter: Dealing with Trent is giving me a headache.You put all that stuff to rest. We had an excellent conversation, Baalke said Sunday. Everythings in actions. Words are words and AD and I have had a pretty good relationship, special relationship, dating back to 2010. Theres been times weve gone at it and he understands why and we move on. Everythings very positive at this point. Now its blending back in, going to work, and I think hes very prepared to do that.Baalke does encourage his players to be responsible when it comes to social media.We talked about everything man-to-man. Got passed it. And now were on the same page, Davis said.He was part of Baalkes first draft class after taking over as GM, selected 11th overall in 2010 out of Rutgers, and he became an immediate impact player. He has started all 71 games in which he has appeared, as well as eight playoff games.Davis also chatted with left tackle Joe Staley about a series of critical tweets last Nov. 28 several days after a 29-13 loss to the NFC West rival Seattle Seahawks. One post read: Cant be soft playing Oline, disrespecting the game. Im preparing my body to play my brand of football. Couldnt just go thru the motions.Staley said he welcomed back Davis and weve had all the conversations we need, while noting his teammate is fitter than Ive ever seen him.Im in the best shape Ive ever seen, too, he said.Davis said he weighs 332 pounds, way down from the 365-370 he played at during the 2014 season when he ended the year on the sideline because of a concussion. He said his symptoms were gone shortly into the offseason and he is completely healthy.Davis said he skipped the offseason with his team because he wasnt quite ready to return. He has been working on both the mental and physical sides of his game, and posted on social media he now meditates.Davis will have to earn his way back up San Franciscos depth chart at right tackle as he makes his comeback. Erik Pears and second-year pro Trent Brown have the head start at right tackle over Davis, who retired last June at age 25 after his 2014 season was cut short by a concussion.AD is going to start on the bottoom, Kelly said.dddddddddddd... I told him hes got a blank slate, just like every other player and just like every other coach here. Were all new. I wasnt here in the past.Davis wore his familiar No. 76 jersey and shook hands before practice with new defensive line coach Jerry Azzinaro.At one point Davis headed one direction with a group of players when center Marcus Martin hollered AD! AD! to get him back in the right place.At quarterback, neither Colin Kaepernick nor Blaine Gabbert can call himself the Niners No. 1 yet. They will be splitting first-team reps at the start of Kellys initial training camp in charge of the 49ers.Davis appeared agile and moved well through drills on Day 1 under cloudless skies Sunday morning in the Bay Area. General manager Trent Baalke stopped for a brief moment to intently watch Davis do some blocking.Kaepernick was a full participant as he works back following surgeries to his non-throwing shoulder, left knee and right thumb. He was accurate and confident all practice despite an interception by Keith Reaser.Kaepernick has gained back some important weight -- he never weighed in he got so light -- and said: I dont look like my high school self anymore. I feel like I look more like an adult now.He completed a pass of about 15 yards to DeAndrew White and hit Garrett Celek in exactly the right spot with his hands away from a defender.Baalke, who promoted Tom Gamble to assistant general manager, knows the pressure to win following a 5-11 season and second straight year out of the playoffs.If youre in the National Football League, youre in the hot seat, he said. Sometimes its a little hotter than others.Game notes LB Aaron Lynch said he appealed and lost a four-game suspension for violating the leagues substance abuse policy. Lynch, who entered the league already in its substance abuse program because of a failed drug test in college, said his infraction had to do with an unreadable specimen ... for drinking too much water. Baalke said the organization is disappointed along with Lynch, someone the GM has supported since the start. ... S Jaquiski Tartt went on the active/non-football injury list because of a quadriceps injury considered minor that might keep him out only a day or two, Kelly said. ... Baalke confirmed NT Ian Williams is rehabbing on site for yet another injury to his troublesome ankle, and he wont play this year.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap Jerseys China NFL Jerseys China NFL Jerseys Wholesale Discount Basketball Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Baseball Jerseys Free Shipping Cheapest College Jerseys Sale Cheap Football Jerseys China Nike NFL Jerseys Canada Wholesale NHL Jerseys From China MLB Jerseys Outlet Canada Wholesale NBA Jerseys Canada Store Cheap Soccer Jerseys China Cheap Authentic Jerseys Canada ' ' '
